Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    I'm afraid these were underwhelming, though the fault may lie with my Sichuan peppercorns (might be time to buy some new). Not much transfer of flavor to the soybeans/pods. I would be tempted to play with this recipe and either just sprinkle the drained but still hot soybeans with Sichuan pepper salt, or something along the lines of edamame we had at Yo Sushi in London (tossed in a scallion oil and sprinkled with togarashi), but heat the ginger and Sichuan pepper in oil? Just a thought!
